Hello,

Will “wait for download” activity, wait for complete download and not take in account “tmp” if exception is specified ?

Sometimes, the file will appear in my folder even if it’s not completely downloaded, then the tmp file will disappear. will UiPath check the file content ?

if not, what is the best way of waiting for a file to fully download ?

@adext,

Yes, it will wait for file download.

UiPath will not check for file content but you can add Ignore file extensions which is temp in your case to disappear.

Go through the documentation and test your downloading in a sample test flow before you put in your main code.

@adext

yes it would wait for complete file to download

you cannot specify for which extension to wait but can specify to ignore extensions like tmp,crdownload etc
